    "I think they like to walk and play with dogs on the beach and boardwalk. Dogs are good companions for taking longer distance walks, especially for lonely retirees."

    "Surfing. That’s right, we are the premiere surfing beach in NYC. Then there,s the food. Rockaway is not a food dessert, but rather an oasis. And the people, well if you a diverse community, that is still affordable look no further. Rockaway Beach, we have something for everyone. Take a stroll along Rockaway Beach Blvd anywhere in the 90s and you are bound to find something to please your pallet. Oh, and the night life is pretty good too. Live bands every weekend throughout the town. What’s not to love. There is even an artists colony, a welcoming LBGT scene, and plenty of arts and cultural events hosted throughout the year. "
